In the original version of Roald Dahl’s book, the Oompa Loompas were African pygmies. That was changed in later versions of the book. By the time the film came around, it’d be pretty unlikely that any remnants of the pygmies remained. But throw a link my way if you have one proving me I’m wrong on this assumption. Thanks.

They pretty looked like John Boehner.
