Node.js debugger hanging

The Node.js inspector step debugger (n1) is hanging after initially starting. I've never been able to make it work past the initial startup. I've put together a video(n2) to show the full example.

Having the debugger work is a necessity for learning and debugging Node.js applications.

n1 - https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v6.x/docs/api/debugger.html#debugger_v8_inspector_integration_for_node_js
n2 - https://www.screencast.com/t/DPLuWjbe


Use Case:

See video in Description.
