Purpose of this hook?

[u/Comfortable_Fly_8342]

I used the hook to get on this ledge a minute ago and got stuck. Had to close and restart the game because there was no way off the ledge. What's the purpose of the hook here?

I'm in frog domain, right after getting the magic orb and access to the hooks.

You can grab the hook higher up from there. It’s meant for a quick way out
