in the challenge the code is written right but it keeps telling me that i am wrong

when i trying to check the work it tells me that the second box shadow needs a horizontal offset of 0 which i have already done but it still gives me the message i am wrong.

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.main-heading {
    text-shadow: 0 0 5px #be7b31;
}

.title {
    text-shadow: 1px 3px 0 #e59740;
}

.main-header {
    box-shadow: 0 2px 15px #aaa, 
         insert 0 0 60px 5px firebrick;
}
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lake Tahoe</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
  </head>
  <body> 
    <header id="top" class="main-header">
      <span class="title">Journey Through the Sierra Nevada Mountains</span>
      <h1 class="main-heading">Lake Tahoe, California</h1>
    </header>

        <div class="primary-content">
            <p class="intro">

        </div><!-- End .primary-content -->

You have insert instead of inset

insert 0 0 60px 5px firebrick;
