What is the magnetic north pole?

Professor Gizmo (Amazing Science Presentations) gives expert video advice on: Why do we need to wear a space suit in space?; Why do things float around in space?; Why do stars twinkle? and more...

Our planet earth has two poles; the north pole and the south pole. It's just like a magnet, and it's not exactly where the north pole or south pole is. It's a little bit off from there.
