For the purpose we will use the following equation for potential energy:
U = m * g * h
In the above equation, m represents the mass of the object, h represents the height of the object and g represents the gravitational field strength (9.8 N/kg on Earth).
When we plug values into the equation, we get following:
U= 65.7kg * 9.8 N/kg *135m = 86921.1 J = 86.92 kJ
