A little more perspective
UK Parliament lists the tower at 96 meters and 11 floors. The clock faces and the bell are separate parts of that full structure.
The common name “Big Ben” is a useful search term, but the bell is not a 96-meter-tall object. This record compares the tower that contains it.
Quick facts
Elizabeth Tower stands 96 meters tall. Big Ben is the great bell inside the tower, rather than the name of the structure itself.
