16. The best actors can do that

There are many people that suck at acting. Nobody would pay to watch them act.

Good acting is a rare talent. Being able to throw a ball 50 yards with accuracy is a rare talent. Being able to hit a 90mph pitch is a rare talent. People willingly pay money to watch all these things happen.

Is a football or baseball player worth millions upon millions of dollars per year? No, but some rich guy is giving them that money because other people come and pay to watch those players do their job.

A funny difference between movies and sports is that nobody would pay to watch a movie being made. Paying to watch actors actually doing the job of acting. I guess some people might, but most people pay to watch the finished product. People get to see the best takes cut down into an hour and a half story. Whereas with sports, if you just watch the highlights(the finished product), you miss out on the context of the game, which is where the story for sports exists.
