The History Channel has a series called Life After People that runs every Tuesday night at 10pm, in which it gives an idea of what could be expected to occur if people suddenly vanished from the earth (for whatever reason).

They also take a look at the 2nd tallest building in the world. "Taipei 101 is considered by some to look like a series of [Chinese Food] take out boxes. How long before nature takes out Taipei 101?"
