What happens when you launch without tubes?

Remember the "Fast Show" with the "OffRoaders" eclipsed by this bunch of comic genii. Could have been nasty, people can panic in confined spaces, and yes Darwinian rules would prevail sadly in this case survival of the strongest at the expense of the weakest.
