A little more perspective
The operator gives the full structure a height of 135 meters. This is the wheel’s total installed height, including the support arrangement, rather than its diameter or the altitude of a particular capsule at an arbitrary moment.
The circular rim sits above ground and is carried by an angled support structure. Keeping both in view distinguishes the complete observation wheel from a floating circle calibrated only by diameter. The oblique illustration preserves the vertical reference while foreshortening horizontal width; the picture is not a measured front elevation.
