That works for small thumbnails.

That works for HQ but only 1 image. Question is how to get 4 HQ thumbnail images?

Are you referring to the full resolution one?:

I don't believe you can get 'multiple' images of HQ because the one you have is the one.

Check the following answer out for more information on the URLs: How do I get a YouTube video thumbnail from the YouTube API?

For live videos use https://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/maxresdefault_live.jpg

Depending on the resolution you need, you can use a different URL:

Default Thumbnail

http://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/default.jpg

High Quality Thumbnail

http://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/hqdefault.jpg

Medium Quality

http://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/mqdefault.jpg

Standard Definition

http://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/sddefault.jpg

Maximum Resolution

http://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/maxresdefault.jpg

Note: it's a work-around if you don't want to use the YouTube Data API. Furthermore not all videos have the thumbnail images set, so the above method doesn’t work.

You need to get id from:

youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID

And put it in:

i.ytimg.com/vi/VIDEO_ID/maxresdefault.jpg

I hope that I helped :D
