7-S waterfall (SOLVED)

[Mason the Mosan]

So in 7-S there's that big waterfall in the pool area, right? Well behind it is a massive winding passage that takes like 5 minutes to fully travel. At the end, is a door. This door requires the red skull to open. Obviously, this is a problem, as the red skull is needed to open the door to the pool area. Anyone have any idea on how one would get the red skull passed the door and into the pool area? I've tried breaking the glass on the second floor of the library area, but nothing works. Along with that, I tried swinging the chandelier around, but nothing has come of it. I'm gonna do some more testing, but if anyone has any ideas (or has figured it out already), please let us know.

EDIT: Did some browsing elsewhere, and figured it out. You need to go through the level like normal until you get the vacuum and sprayer. Go to the top part of the library inside, and to the right of the area there should be a green book sticking out a bit from the bookshelf. Suck it up with the vacuum, and it'll cause the bookcase section to rotate. Stick close to the bookcase so you can go with it as it rotates, then shoot the pylon there with the railgun. Leave the little area, then use the vacuum to suck up the ghost drones. WARNING: Do not just hold down the suck button (heh) and run at all of the ghosts. Make sure to stop clicking, then start clicking again, otherwise the ghosts won't get sucked up after the first one and you'll die instantly if they touch you. After sucking them all up, grab the red skull and return to the green book. Go through the passage again, and the way should be open, so you can go through to the tunnel behind the waterfall.

Honestly, though, it's not really worth doing all this. Would've been interesting to get some more lore, or at the very least a, like...super sprayer or something.

I managed to get the skull by after beating the pool section, I went back, held the skull, and died carrying it. It respawned me on the pool with the skull.

Where specifically? The waterfall is walled off; noclip lets me see that theres the start of some kind of passage behind the waterfall, but theres nothing there - no door or red pedestal for the skull.

Can't be using cheats, or you can't access the secret.
