Where did you get the idea that tape is so fragile?
I'd wager the ones you
encountered were either of very poor quality or were stored under adverse
conditions (high heat, high humidity, etc).
A side note: I've got VHS tapes that are 10-12 years old and still look the
same when played. I find that most tapes fail with heavy use, not age
deterioration.
