Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) crews have helped save a skydiver, who had landed on a tree at Moruya, on the state's south coast.
FRNSW personnel joined NSW Police, NSW Ambulance, State Emergency Service and NSW Rural Fire Service crews to reach the man.

The skydiver found himself hanging upside down, stuck in the tree, around 40-meters off the ground near the Moruya Airport. The man manoeuvred himself into a fork of the tree where he then turned himself upright.
An arborist from the skydiving company accessed the parachutist by climbing above him and attaching ropes that allowed FRNSW crews to lower him to the ground. The rescue took approximately two and a half hours, and the man was uninjured.
