Just to try my hand at it, again, this was just randomeness and boredness mixed, henceforth this. I am not sure why it cut's off at the end. 
And the sudden stop when he hits the ground is sort of annoying, trust me it bothers me. Anyway's heres the link:
This one is better than your last mask I think. If I didn't know it was a masking test, I wouldn't have picked out the masking so good job on that.
As far as the animation and particularly the sudden stop when he hits the ground, I would suggest having him slide a few frames when he hits the ground to make it more realistic. Leg and arm movement also help the minifig from looking like a slab of meat hitting the ground. 
better than the other one, just a test...
Its not bad at all, just need perfecting. Maybe you could send the minifig into view at a higher angle, or possibly upslightly into a like 180-spin (along with a violent head snap) as though he just received a strong right hook. Right now he is flying in at a bit of a horizontal. A half-somersault landing on his back upon contact with the ground would also suffice. Great masking and nice touch with the legs lowering slowly. It adds a level of subtle reality to it.
My two cents

That's not half bad.
It has a great mask and nice and smooth animation to it. This could be very useful in epic action films as for a fight scene or something.
Anyway,overall it is a very well put short animation.
