will his potential energy and kinetic energy be equal?

Equal to what??
It will be equal to PE at half the original height, and equal to the original PE at the bottom.

since the total energy at the top is mgh, obviously half of it will be lost at the 5 meter point

kinetic energy can never be equal..thats a string..kinetic energy is always a float value or integer. :-)

when the height by the acceleration due to gravity is equal to half the velocity squared. this is generally half way down
