2nd everyone on the same side of the earth, without any on the other side jumping, would have to jump to have any chance of effecting the earths orbit and chances are thats not going to happen.
It's not just jupiter that puts the sun into its own orbit, it's all the mass of the solar system with exception to the sun. However since the sun takes up 98% of the mass of the solar system, its not going to move much.

So, what does that have to do with changing the orbit of the earth by having people jump on it?

And this guy says its possible:
