Unlikely, but regardless, quite the reverse.

YR4 estimated diameter of 53 to 67 metres (174 to 220 ft)

Meteor Crater impactor “was approximately 150 feet (45.7 meters) across. Other sources estimate its diameter to be between 40 and 50 meters (130 to 170 feet), with some specifying 46 meters (150 feet).” [Brave AI]

Giant Asteroid 2032

Well I'm 74, I guess going out at 81 from a big bang in 2032 would be cool! And it would be death by natural causes too!

God does not play Dice with the Universe, and he does not need help with aiming his asteroids

Does my life insurance pay off in case of meteor impact?

I was thinking that the asteroid will impact just about the time that the Social Security Trust Fund is set to run out. That’s the perfect excuse for NOT solving that problem.

The last weird alien interstellar object turned out to be natural. So here’s another one to worry about until it too is proven natural.

Scientific research isn't grift. Grinding political axes while pretending to do research is.

No one has suggested this isn’t natural, but thanks for playing.

Either way, we are all going to die, so let’s panic and freak out about our impending doom!

” If it comes down over the ocean it will be of no consequence.”

The tsunami created by such an impact would not be a minor thing for coastal areas.

It won’t matter because Yellowstone will have already erupted by then and maybe some of the other Super volcanoes. An asteroid strike will be a piker by comparison.

The cherry on top, if you will.
