in 1989 the worlds tallest ferris wheel was built in yokohama. it was overtaken a few years later by bigger ones and is now somewhere around the 20th tallest, but it's still billed as "the world's tallest ferris wheel (with a clock function)" because theres a clock on it

Really a mistake to not put clock hands on there. 60 cars each representing a minute, takes an hour to revolve.

The clock is dumb. People viewing the ferris wheel should always be in awe & never like “Ah fuck. It’s 2 already.”
