It seems to me that they got the physics wrong. If everyone in the world were to jump at the same exact moment, won't most of them either be useless (adding energy in a direction that does not add to the orbital momentum) or counterproductive (actually *subtracting* orbital energy? I would think that each time zone should jump at the same (magic) time of day, so that they can ensure that they're adding their energy to the earth's orbit. Instead of one useless "big" push in all directions at once, the Earth can get 24-39 "small" pushes in the same direction.
