In a position paper written by Flavio Barbiero, he demonstrated that the immense forces needed to tilt or shift the polar axis of the earth can be done by the torque generated by a relatively small asteroid impact. This asteroid impact would cause instantaneous change in the axis of rotation and the instantaneous shift in the poles in any direction and amplitude. In other words, the North Pole could "jump almost instantaneously from a location to another, thousands kilometers away (miles is you wish), due to the combined effects of forces, such as the impact of a medium size asteroid and the Sun-Moon gravitational attraction on the equatorial bulge.
