Every time I get to the part where you have to swing and climb the wall, Lara never reaches the top and just falls off, here's a video https://youtu.be/K_tOQRCO-zc

You are not throwing the grapple axe soon enough. As soon as you jump you should hit E to throw the grapple. As you can see, you cannot jump, wait a second, then throw the grapple as it will not go high enough.

It looks like you are waiting too soon into the swing...

Don't wait so many time to launch the grapple towards objects.

Allways try to launch it when you reach max height on Lara's jump(regular basis use, do creative uses of platforming skills at your own risk :D), by how the game teaches you to use it seems it's only upwards aim, reality is not...Lara will aim towards any object in which can grapple, no matter if it's higher or lower or at the same level, the only condition is she needs to be facing the object where you want to grapple in and the range of grapple.
In this case the difference is live/death, normally you will notice that if you launch sooner you'll take less time to traverse the obstacle, so doing it properly is a time saver on platforming.

Well...that was your problem....can't make that particular jump on an empty stomach :)

i'm still having problem with this, and i tried launching in every possible way and the outcome is the same, she falls every time

I was having issues with this too, must have tried at least 25 times and was coming up short each time - then I realised I was still pressing W as I was jumping and swinging, as soon as I released W I made it first time.

I can confirm this, thank you so much I thought I was crazy.

i was horribly failing to make that jump myself but then i accidentally threw the rope with axe at the ledge after the swing, which is probably how it was intended to be done
