Answer:

Hyperbole.

Explanation:

Hyperbole is a figure of speech in which, through the use of exaggeration, one emphasizes the properties of something or someone in order to create a stronger and more vivid impression that aims at producing an effect on the reader or listener that can make the figure of speech more memorable. Hyperboles, like all forms of figurative language, are not supposed to be taken literally.
