Nice list...
Just imagine what the Apophis list will look like post 2029 or 2036...

At least Apophis (2036) will end the communist tyranny in America...
An impact on the continental shelf off the east coast will enable an optimum flush...
A 300 meter asteroid should result in a 50-to-100 foot tsunami

Even at 102, here on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay I’ll be standing on one of my docks and have the old surfboard ready...

The rock to end civilization as we know it will probably be discovered during the seconds it takes to burn its way through the atmosphere.

Apophis will miss in '29 or '36, but may hit in '68. An impact on an ocean or sea is about twice as likely as an impact on land, and would be marginally a better outcome for those alive at the time. A tsunami generated by it would be the least of everyone's worries.
