414URI Too Long

The URL itself is longer than the server is prepared to read.

When you see it

Almost always a GET request carrying data that should have been in a POST body, such as a long form submitted by the wrong method, or a query string built in a loop that never stopped growing.

Limits vary by server but sit in the region of a few thousand characters, so a URL long enough to trigger this is usually a bug rather than a legitimate request.
