capillary tube is not really sealed securely. there are tiny gaps between the cells that forms the wall of cappilary tubes which allows certain materials to pass through (eg. nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide). It is just not permeable to your blood cells cause if it does, your body will be insufficient of blood cells
