I realise I can only send upto 25gb by Gmail. I need to create a video which will be larger than 25gb. How can I send this by Gmail? I will create a video on my mobile, 1 minute. 

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks

    send it in the usual way - it will upload it to google drive and send a link to the recipient so they can view / download it

    Or stick it on YouTube, set it as private and email a link.

    25GB for 1 minute? What sort resolution are you using?
    Do you realise how long it would take to upload a 25Gb file?

    When I send/share stuff from my Android phone, I'm sure I get an option to send the link to my google account rather than the whole file

    To send large files I've used WeTransfer.

    Was that 132gb or  132GB in 11 mins what is your upload speed? If the latter your upload is in excess of 1.6Gbps i'm impressed
