i want to know how they first discovered they could do such maneuvers?

One of those manoeuvres is Pugachev's Cobra where the a/c cycles to around 90 to 120 degrees alpha. Another of the manoeuvres is The Bell.

The SU-30 is longitudinally unstable and uses a fly by wire system which utilises a computer that manages all control surfaces as well as thrust vectoring.

 

A truly amazing a/c.
