Because they are too big a file to send. You can get apps to reduce size of video so you can send them. Or you can trim the vids to make them small enough to send...

You could also use a cloud service. With your Google account you have access to one of the best already. Google Drive. You have to set it up but once setup is complete it's simple to use. You can move large files to the cloud via your phone or Google connected device. From there you can send a link and anyone with the link can view the file. There are levels of access for the data also. Viewers can view, modify, add or any combination you choose. Friends with there own Google accounts can create shares also and give you access back and forth from your/their own Drive account. Plus vids and pics added to your drive account are accessible in your Photos app where you can view all the images on your Google connected devices in one gallery.

Welcome to Android Central! Agree with VidJunky. An easy thing to do would be to upload your video to YouTube privately, and share the link with the recipient only.
