Twitter bootstrap padding not working

I am trying to position my content under my navbar and when I add the padding-top: 60px; it works but pushes the navbar down. I also need the background to be at the top of the page behind the navbar. How can I fix this? The content for the page including the navbar AND background are pushed down but I need the navbar and the background at the top of the page and only the content pushed down.

body {
    padding-top: 65px;
    margin: 0;
    width: 100%;
}

#header {
  background-color: grey;
  opacity: .7;
  width: 100%;
  height: 80px;
  position: fixed;
  z-index: 1000;
}

#logo a {
  font-size: 30px;
  font-weight: bold;
  color: rgb(255, 255, 255);
  font-family: 'DIN 1451 Std Engschrift';
  margin-top: 5px;
}

#slide1 {
  width: 100%;
  background: url('sunrise.png') 50% 0 no-repeat fixed;
  background-size: cover;
  color: #ffffff;
  height: 700px;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 40px 0 260px 0;
}

.content {
  margin: 0 auto;
  width: 1000px;
}
<div id="header">
        <div class="content">
    <nav id="nav" class="navbar navbar-expand-lg">

    First of all you need to correct the HTML markups. All html contents must be inside tag. Wrap the elements in a body tag, and create another div or section for contents followed by the header. And give padding to that div.
