200m of height difference (a lot!) only translates to 0.5°C in temperature difference worth of potential energy (assuming the object has the specific heat of water).
And that ignores the fact that you would have that heat mainly in the stationary conductor (copper tube), not the magnetic falling object (person with magnets strapped on).
