My jumbotron won't respond to a percentage value for its height.

My jumbotron height is only responding to pixel values. Anyone know what i'm doing wrong?

jumbotron {
   height: 75% !important;
}

Try adding !important after you put a percentage in like the example.

Its also possible that your percentage values are too large to notice any change until it gets smaller.
