Cameras in the Cold (getting stuck up)

Hello, everyone. I was wondering if you have experienced any cold-related problems when handling your all metal-gear?

I remember a friend telling me that his Retina IIc shutter got stuck while photographing on top of a mountain in negative temperature.

This Canon video got me thinking about it, but it's a DSLR, so it would be definitely different... I'm also wondering if in real life DSLRs can perform like this:

Just got me really, really curious. I rarely hear about it here, being a tropical country, but I'd appreciate your thoughts/ experiences on it. Thanks!
