White space - Chrome vs Firefox

I have done the code exactly as show in the video. When I open my webpage in Chrome the white space at the top is still present. When I open it in Firefox the white space is gone. What is going on?

Different browsers have different default stylings (margins, padding, etc.), so a website could have subtle differences from one browser to another. One way to help minimize these differences is to use the normalize.css stylesheet before all your other stylesheets. This will attempt to make sure that all default styles are consistent from browser to browser, making much easier to ensure your site looks the same everywhere.
