colossal
This word carries a sense of awe or overwhelming scale that goes far beyond simple size. It suggests something so massive that it dwarfs its surroundings or becomes difficult to comprehend, often evoking a feeling of insignificance in the observer. While it can describe physical dimensions, it is frequently used to emphasize the severity of a failure or the magnitude of an achievement. Using it for a small mistake would be seen as hyperbolic or sarcastic, as the term is reserved for things of truly epic proportions.
