It isn't clear what you mean with "he", but an object's gravitational potential energy is greatest at its highest position.

He has the most gravitational potential energy at the highest point of his trajectory, when he is at the peak of his jump before starting to descend back down.
No, potential energy is greatest at the highest point of the ball's trajectory, which is point 2. At this point, the ball has the maximum gravitational potential energy due to its position above the ground.
An object at a high altitude has the most gravitational potential energy, as potential energy is directly related to an object's height above a reference point. The higher an object is lifted against gravity, the more potential energy it has.
The diver's gravitational potential energy just before the dive is at its maximum, as the diver is at the highest point in the dive and has the most gravitational potential energy. This potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy as the diver falls during the dive.
An object has the most gravitational potential energy at its highest point, such as when it is lifted off the ground. This is because the gravitational potential energy of an object is directly proportional to its height above a reference point, usually the ground level.
The most influential factors on the potential energy of an object are its position in a gravitational field and the height at which it is located relative to a reference point. The higher an object is positioned in a gravitational field, the more potential energy it possesses.
