Mt. Everest
You invest hundreds of thousands of your hard-earned savings and hours of training into the trip of a lifetime: Climbing Mt. Everest. You endure sub-zero temperatures. You deprive your body of oxygen. You patiently wait for the weather to clear. You may even ignore the pleas of a dying man for help as you make your way to the top. You realize that you have a limited supply of oxygen and digits (it can get very cold) and you want nothing more than to enjoy that spectacular view. And just feet from the summit, what do you find? A line. Yep, you behave in the same way you would as if you were waiting for a movie about climbing Mt. Everest. How must that feel? Would that cheapen the experience at all? (Metaphorically, of course given the fees attached to the climb).
