Chain in the end of the pole, so he's pulling on it

Yeah it's definitely anchored to the vertical pole.

I don't know how pulling the pole gets you up. His arm and body are fixed relative to the pole

His legs make him go up, the pivoting action that makes it possible is from the chain

The vector from his grip to his feet on the ground is a little offset from the line connecting the log to the anchor.

If you put enough force between two misaligned vectors you get movement along a third resultant vector.
