It's too small. Maybe will kill around 1000 if hit town with high density population.
In same scenario Benny will kill millions if hit big town.
Not any global impact. Benny also is too small.

Even Chicxulub - much larger than either of those - could not wipe out life on Earth. It caused mass extinctions of many existing species, yes, but many survived. 2024 YR4 is estimate at between 40 and 90 m diameter. Bennu (known Earth orbit crossing orbit, but not on a collision course) is a bit under 500 m. Neither would be good for anyone in the vicinity - major destruction to a town for the smaller one, major destruction to a city for the latter, plus air shock waves blowing out eardrums and windows over large areas.
