He managed to ditch the chainsaw and it dropped away from him, he didn't hit any of the branch stumps on the way down and he landed with his feet down and on a couple of branches that at least slightly cushioned his impact.
I think the branches cushioned more than slightly the impact, he got really lucky but he probably still messed up his back, falling in a sitting position that can't be good.

That probably could have gone better.
