That's not a valid array construct...

You can't have $array['val1'] be a string ('whatever') and also an array
(['val2'])..

Or is that 5 different examples?

Untested Code:
<?php
  $string = "val1~~val2~~val3~~val4~~val5";
  $keys = explode("~~", $string);
  $keys = array_reverse($keys);
  $array = 'whatever';
  while (list(, $key) = each($keys)){
    $array[$key] = $array;
  }
  var_dump($array);
?>
