Pinocchio can feel the earth's geomagnetic field.
In The Adventures of Pinocchio, Pinocchio's nose gets longer when he is under stress. It's a generic tell for different kinds of stress, not only lying. This focus on Pinocchio's lie tic implies that Pinocchio must be confident in the direction. So one of two things must be true:
