2）Send us a note from two doctors who will prove that you are in perfect health, have never been sick, and never will be sick.

3）Send us a document from your physical education teacher or team coach that proves that you can do each of the following: Run two miles in less than four minutes, climb an oiled rope to a height of twenty feet in thirty seconds while balancing a glass of water on your nose, and walk in bare feet over hot coals and broken glass without injury.

4）Send us notarized（得到公证的）letters from at least two mental health experts saying that you have never had an envious thought towards other people.
