I can't understand these number 9's in the clouds...why not 7, or 10, or 1 ?

cloud nine

1. (idiomatic) a state of happiness, elation or bliss; often used in the phrase on cloud nine.

He was on cloud nine for days after she agreed to marry him.

* The popular etymology references the 1896 edition of the International Cloud Atlas which defined ten types of cloud. The ninth cloud was the cumulo-nimbus rising to a height of 10 km, which is the highest a cloud can be. There is, however, no evidence for this.
* The 1960 print of the Dictionary of American Slang (Wentworth & Flexner) includes “cloud seven”, the usage of which seems to predate “cloud nine” by a few years. Other etymologies reference Buddhist or Christian lore, and even Dante’s Divine Comedy, but again there are no reasons to prefer these versions.

I think George Harrison explained perfectly the meaning of 'cloud nine' and he was a huge F1 fan .
