A man who was trimming a tree on Sunday morning needed to be rescued by the Marion County Fire Department firefighters who answered a call either from an eyewitness or the tree trimmer himself when a branch fell on him which pinned him to the ground.
The incident took place in Fort McCoy Florida. The firefighters used their rescue equipment to lower the accident victim from the area on the tree where he was pinned by the branch down to the ground where he was placed on a stretcher and taken by ambulance to a local hospital to be treated for his injuries.
Hopefully the injured tree trimmer will make a speedy recovery from his injuries that he suffered in the incident soon.

@Deepizzaguy the situation could have been worse, right?

You are right since climbing up a tree or get on a roof takes a lot of courage.

Glad he got rescued and didn't fall from the tree, Reminded me of one of the stupidest videos about tree cutting I ever saw, I man was sawing down a tree, then ran to the side on which the tree would fall to see it go down, and yelled TImber! I leave the rest to your imagination,

It would be a real life version of the Warner Brothers cartoons when a character gets hit in the head by a falling tree.

I'm glad he was rescued; and I hope he fully recovers.
