In a nutshell, if this experiment doesn't find evidence of the Higgs boson, it's likely that a whole branch of particle physics theory, the "Standard Model", will be abandoned.
Fears have also been raised about the possibility of inadvertently creating a black hole or "strange quarks" which could react with other subatomic particles and propagate uncontrollably, probably meaning the end of existence for you and I.
