ng-blur directive doesn't work

I'm using chrome 59.0.3071.115. I tried to preview the code from workspaces and from my local machine. The result is the same. When I click outside of the input area nothing happens.

make sure you didn't apply it to the checkbox input by mistake ..it should be on the text input I made this mistake and was confused for a few minutes!

It's not that it doesn't work. The blur event seems to only fire when you change the actual text of the "to-do." If you don't make any changes, it doesn't fire.
