He's better off hoping that NASA made a mistake on their calculations for 99942 Apophis in 2036:

I rate Apophis as a much more likely candidate. And its approach is more likely to be close enough to Earth's gravity well to bring it around again sooner than 2079.

You know it won't be an Earth shattering extinction event, just incredibly annoying. inconvenient and expensive.
And in keeping with our luck it will slam right into Fort Mac.
Leaving a crater full of pounded out pure crude oil the size of Lake Superior, decades after everyone's stopped using it...

At least it would have created news headlines that had nothing to do with COVID19...
