That's what I half expected the page to be, much like http://hasthelargehadroncolliderdestroyedtheworldyet.com

Lol.

And if it does, the page will be updated to "Yes.", right?

Close - It will update to "Yup." The source code reads:

    if (!(typeof worldHasEnded == "undefined")) {
        document.write("YUP.");
    } else {
        document.write("NOPE.");
    }
And, it even comes with a warranty:

> <!-- if the lhc actually destroys the earth & this page isn't yet updated please email mike@frantic.org to receive a full refund -->

Very Steve Jobs-ish. Yup. Nope.
And a full refund if the LHC site you linked is wrong too!
That silly page have 6 of Pagerank... and i have years trying to get some of mine out of zero!
