What Would Happen If Asteroid Bennu Hit Earth?

After OSIRIS REx grabbed a sample a coupe of weeks ago many people remarked on how the asteroid just seemed to disintegrate when sampled. Some commenters took this fragility as a sign the asteroids would just disintegrate in the atmosphere before it hit the surface of earth.

Unfortunately that's not the case, Bennu is so large that it would still hit the surface, albeit in fragments and still cause massive amounts of damage.
