Don's right, those fill hoses have significant wire reinforcement built into the walls of the hose, plus a round hose shape naturally has a significant amount of hoop strength in compression as well. Even if you could pull a perfect vacuum on it, I don't think a mere 14.7 psi of compressive pressure would even faze it!
