Thread: Please help me translate this

Does anyone know how to translate the following?

Cuanta gente! Adonde va todo el mundo? Mira! Van debajo de la tierra!

I am translating this as part of a homework assignment. The context is a bus tour guide making announcements to the passengers and the people going underground are taking the subway... So far this is how I have translated it:

All the people! Where does the whole world go? Look! They're going underground!

but it still doesn't sound right to me. Any suggestions?

Thanks, I don't think it would have occurred to me to translate "todo el mundo" as "everybody". In this case it definitely sounds better/makes more sense in english.

"So many people! Where is everybody going? Look! They're going underground!"
