Does it make sense if I say I took a breath as deep as the pacific ocean?

Yes, this does make sense, however it can be a bit confusing. The Pacific Ocean is deep, making it a good use as a smilies for a deep breath. It could be confusing because at first it looks like you are trying to imply the Pacific Ocean breathes. Maybe "as deep as the ocean" will suffice instead.
A simile is a figure of speech that compares two things by using the words "like" or "as". The comparison is made indirectly.
Here are some examples of a good simile:
- White as a ghost
- Fast like a cheetah
- As slippery as an eel
- She felt as tall as a giraffe
- Swam like a fish through rough ocean waters
- Is as agile as a monkey
- Lifeless as a dead battery
- Is as fast as a snail having a bad day
- This love is as solid as the ground we stand on
- The dress is perfect, it fits like a glove
Using your example, some similes are:
- As deep as the ocean
- As deep as the sea
- As deep as hell
- As deep as outer space
- As deep as the Mariana Trench

∙ 9y agoYes, it does, in terms of figurative language use. What you have here is a simile, as well as an example of hyperbole (extreme exaggeration).
