The man was trapped for some time until fire crews were able to remove the tree, a Queensland Ambulance spokeswoman said.

He was freed about 4pm with head, hip and pelvis injuries and serious head injuries.

He was in a conscious and stable condition at this stage, the spokeswoman said.

This comes after a fashion designer reportedly lost three limbs in a tractor incident on a Queensland property on Thursday.
