To estimate how many cheeseburgers would fit into the asteroid Apophis, we need to consider the volume of both the asteroid and a cheeseburger. Volume of Apophis: Apophis is roughly egg-shaped or dual-lobed, with dimensions approximately 450 meters long and 170 meters wide at its shortest axis. Simplifying this to an ellipsoid for volume calculation:  Volume of an ellipsoid = (4/3) * π * a * b * c, where a, b, and c are the semi-axes. Assuming semi-axes of roughly 225 meters (half of 450), 85 meters (half of 170), and an intermediate value for the third axis (let's say 150 meters for simplicity): Volume ≈ (4/3) * π * 225 * 85 * 150 ≈ 35,342,917 cubic meters. Volume of a Cheeseburger: A typical cheeseburger has a diameter of about 10 cm (0.1 meters) and a height of about 5 cm (0.05 meters), approximating it to a cylinder: Volume of a cylinder = π * r^2 * h, where r is the radius and h is the height. Volume ≈ π * (0.05)^2 * 0.05 ≈ 0.00039 cubic meters. Number of Cheeseburgers: Now, dividing the volume of Apophis by the volume of one cheeseburger: Number of cheeseburgers ≈ 35,342,917 / 0.00039 ≈ 90,622,864,103 cheeseburgers. Therefore, approximately 90.6 billion cheeseburgers could theoretically fit inside the asteroid Apophis, assuming no packing inefficiencies and treating cheeseburgers as uniform cylinders. Remember, this is a rough estimate due to the simplified shape assumptions for both the asteroid and the cheeseburger. 
Ok it said the asteroid is 74x Empire State Buildings weight and each building is 356,000 tons so x 74 = 26,344,000 tons of the asteroid and 1 ton =32,000 oz so 26,344,000 tons x 32,000 oz =843,008,000,000 oz. An average cheese burger weigh about 8 oz so 843,008,000,000 oz divided by 8 oz =105,376,000,000 cheeseburgers .
@@jeffreyjohnsonofficial right, a pretty easy math problem, as you showed, and, correct, the asteroid probably is not a sphere more like a potato, so complicated to get volume but assumptions can be made. And the burger could be a cylindrical solid section, of certain height and diameter depending on the brand of burger, which could be "standardized" with a sample of each and take an average of dimensions. For homemade ones, is where your calculations may "all fall down", however. For example, it would be absolutely "ginormous" at my house, a two to two- and one-half pounder, 2-3 beef patties, with pound of cheese, and a very tiny bit of lettuce and tomato, LOL. and so much greater in volume than any fast-food restaurant's offering, maybe two to three times, thus fewer of them would fit within Apophis!! :D But the "standard burger" you showed could be "acceptable" for some folks,..... I guess!! And multiply number by the weight of a "quarter pounder" you will get another interesting figure. Trick question kids, would the "my ginormous burgers" all add up to greater weight than all the "standard" ones inside of Apophis? LOL ;D
The depicted Los Angeles impact would only be the beginning of catastrophe as the gigantic wild fires , for example, would generate dense smoke to cover most of the USA. Damaging crops and making human and animal breathing a challenge. And then there is the massive, massive communication interruption across the USA

Did the simulation for a strike on Los Angeles take into account for the earthquake that it would probably set off the san Andrea's fault?
So. The solution will be to either speed up or slow down the rotation of the Earth so the next big one also enters above Russia.
that new asteroid is called Biden
Making something out of nothing is what you should have called this hyped up documentary as the comet will not be hitting earth
