This guy isn’t making sense. He’s talking about a shift of the magnetic north pole (which he keeps referring to as the north pole just to add confusion). Then he starts talking about how the place where the sun sets has shifted. That would mean that the actual polar axis had shifted, rather than the magnetic poles.
This guy has lost all credibility as far as I’m concerned.
One of my great-grandfathers was a northern Pole, and I believe he moved hundreds of miles in a few weeks to become a south Pole w/o adverse effects.
(Some relatives around that time did “migrate” to Siberia, probably due to external forces...)

All the animals that navigate by magnetics are going to have problems as this accelerates. As a pilot I am used to the annual updates to the isogonic lines but even then it screws with me because I know various magnetic headings but they change year to year. I have this one route I fly that was 139° and started heading that way one rather dark night only to have the other pilot rib me some and say, “Ahem...ah....139? Sure that isn’t now 136?” In the past few years it has change that much.

I knew my car’s compass was off.....
Wow, am I embarrassed. I set my GPS for Canada, but when I got there all the Canadians were like, Como esta usted? And donde esta la biblioteca? I thought this was strange even for Canada, but the food was spicy and the tequilla was good so I made the best of it.

Poor Mikey!
He should get together with Hal Camping; at least Camping knows how to raise money with his crackpot predictions.
Heck I just saw the pole over at Smitty’s bar
