Why not just make a tall animation? lol anyway it need more anticipation and easing.

becuase its alot more fun to make 2 animaitons and try to make them mold together.

Really nice, but the timing is way off, obviously.

Nice physics; the bodies move in unison as they fall to the ground. This would be a good avvy/sig animation

It's fine.
One animation is shorter than the second.

Its quite good actually. Its good to try things like these. The easing was nice. Maybe the fall in the upper animation could have used some variation. But if you wanted a lot of criticism this isn't exactly the place there are like so few good animators here, the rest left.

I don't know what's been added when because I was on holiday so I'll crit the lot.

I think there are a lot of places where you need to sort out stiffness or follow through with movements more. Take, for example, fly 4 when he bursts out of the ground: I would say raise the arms more after he's out.

There's one time (can't remember where) where a sick goes from the ground into the air and then flys along. I think he should jump into the air rather than just float. It will look better if he crouches down and then comes up with heavy spacing than just raising him.

Lastly, your spacing looks a bit heavy in most places. I'd reduce the difference between each frame and smooth it up a bit. I'm thinking especially of "another obstacle course" which could have looked a lot better in my opinion if you'd had more frames to play with for easing and stiffness.

Aside from that they're generally pretty good.
