Note: I am NOT a speedrunner, so my videos are not perfect. I'm uploading these as a way of showing people the shortcuts and glitches that I have seen online and can prove whether or not they work on the PS2 version of Tomb Raider: Anniversary. They may work on other versions, they may not. I don't know, so please don't ask me about it.
Apologies about the video quality. I don't have a means of recording my console gaming except for taping off of the television with the digital camera.
To perform this shortcut, raise the water level first. That way, if you fail, it doesn't kill you. Now, Lara isn't supposed to be able to grab the ledge from the arm of the central pillar like you see here. However, if you run from about where I show it, she will. I was very surprised to get this to work on the first try, because it usually takes several tries. If you want fairly surefire reliability, the boundary glitch shown in my previous video is probably better. However, this is also quite quick. This isn't too tough, so just practice it a few times and you'll be fine. Good luck.
(PS: if you're curious why the gate is already open, it's because I recorded this right after recording the boundary glitch video.)
i did this on a video too, love that shortcut!!!
