OK, at this point I am utterly convinced this fill is completely impossible to hit. It looks so straightforward, but NOTHING WORKS. Has anybody else successfully hit this? Does anybody know the BPM of the song?

Don't worry, looks like you just have to speed up for the last quad.

A few things to keep in mind:

1) as others said, speed up for the last quad.

2) The toms alternate, instead of all being the same color That means that as the tempo increases, the timing window to hit them shrinks a bit so you have to be more precise. It's the same reason alternating blasts are so hard to hit in RB.

3) This is pretty obvious, but the bass should be half the speed of the stickwork. So 2 kicks in the space of 4 tom hits. So make sure you don't rush the kicks trying to "keep up" with the stickwork.

Nothing about it looks impossible. No "broken" notes or anything like that. But it does look pretty tricky. Just keep at it.
