According to NASA: "The asteroids capable of causing a global disaster if they hit the Earth are extremely rare. They probably would need to be about a kilometer or more in diameter. Such bodies impact the Earth only once every 100,000 years on average."

I assumed a human lives 100 years to make it simple.

so you are saying that if it does hit within our lifetime (1/1000 chance of that happening), then 100% of the time every single person will die from it...
