here, its written that "The  North magnetic pole is located at latitude of 79.74 °  N and a longitude of 71.8 °  W, a place somewhere in North Canada. The magnetic South Pole is at 79.74 °  S and 108.22 °  E in Antarctica." But in the video its showing south pole and mentioning the location as  79.74 °  N and  71.8 °  W...

Dear Student,

I have checked the video, the same explanation as text is given in it. The North magnetic pole of Earth is at 79.74°N, 71.8°W and South magnetic pole of earth is at 79.74°S, 108.22°E.

You may be getting confuse with the positioning of Earth's giant magnet. Due to unlike poles attract each other the North-pole of magnet is towards the magnetic south pole of Earth and South-pole of magnet is towards the magnetic North pole of Earth.
