The limit of 16MB data per document is a very well known limitation. Use GridFS for storing arbitrary binary data of arbitrary size + metadata.

You have hit the maximum limit of a single document in MongoDB. If you save large data files in MongoDB, use GridFs instead. If your document has too many subdocuments, consider splitting it and use relations instead of nesting.
