Basically, pre-flop Aces will be a favourite to win. The main worry with that kind of scenario is that you'll find yourself against an AK and AQ as well as a pair or 2, so tha you have little chance to improve. 
Yes, on the bubble you're risking going away with nothing, but it's the best chance you'll have of getting a decent stack size and getting seriously back into the tournament.
That said, if you have 4 people all-in and you're 1 place outside, you're probably 75% or more likely to find yourself guaranteed in the money if you don't play the hand. It depends how big a swing you're willing to take in your tournament fees, and what the payout structure is. 
Another consideration is how short a stack you are... if you have only a couple of chips, and the next blinds will still take most of your chips even if you triple up, then ensuring the money placing is worthwhile. If you have enough chips that tripling up will put you back up to a half-decent stack size compared to your opposition, then play it.
