How about a mess of a mesh?
For instance, you could do the same as happens with the parachute:
create a mess of an object (sphere, box, whatever) but built from a lot
of triangles. Than translate all points of the triangle to fit within
the tube (randomly), without ripping the mesh apart.
Perhaps add some wrinkles to the texture to cover up some strange
faults.

Good luck,

Remco
