Willy Wonka never shows an ounce of emotion whenever this occurs, he just shrugs it off and continues with the tour. This is especially noticeable when it gets near the end and he doesn't even realize 90% of the group is missing, even though he watched them all fall to their imminent demise. Still a good movie though.

I can't tell if the never made it out alive part was serious or not. The joke was it seemed like they would die, but Wonka knew they wouldn't because it's just not something he would allow. That movie was one of the defining movies of my childhood and film buff history, and I never once got the idea the children never made it out alive. Didn't Wonka meniton that would all go home?
