You can connect to his Mac if he's not behind a router and he turns file sharing on. Otherwise, iChat is one way you could do it, I think.
E-mail is definitely not going to work since they usually have limits on attachment file sizes that are more like 5-10 MB rather than 6 GB...

What speed DSL do you/your brother have? It is possible to directly connect two computers together, but I imagine it would take in the order of days to send such a large file. Mind telling us what kind of file it is? It would probably be faster to burn it to a DVD and mail it to him...

Trying to email a 6GB file is funny.
