The energies the LHC will impart are many times greater than a TV tube. They are worried the incredibly high energies may create these exotic things People argue that cosmic ray collisions impart even higher energies and if something nasty was going to happen it would have by now, but theres so much we dont know about the Universe. The chances of anything going wrong may be billions to 1 against, but not absolutely impossible.
