Default (Totally OT question): The effects of extreme cold....hypothermiaetc

Uncle Peter made this incredible statement:

"This is a fact. -20C air does not make you cold, . You might shiver
if you were naked, but the shivering will stop you getting any colder".

To me, it sounds like he's talking absolute bull**** and he should be
sent to the funny farm, but is there an element of truth in what he
said?....Anyone know?
