How is sarcasm used in this passage? Identify and explain it.

What effect does using this literary device have on the passage? Explain

Passage: Also, he gives the impression that it was only he who really climbed it on his own, and that he then practically pulled me, so that I "finally collapsed exhausted at the top, like a giant fish when it has just been hauled from the sea after a terrible struggle." Since then I have heard plenty about that "fish," and I admit I do not like it

    Explanation:

    This is because we aren't actually talking about a fish, we are talking about the person who "flopped" like a fish.
