Theres a thread for youtube videos.
And no it doesnt actually work.
It eventually cracks the paint and/or surface.
Its like trying to open a door with a tennis ball
I've tried it anf FAILED. It depends on the dent.
You can buy dry ice from dry ice manufactures. Theres a place in Botany [Sydney] near eastgardens which manufactures it but you can go there with an esky and buy the offcuts. The offcuts are pretty damn big and its dirt cheap[ per Kg]

Nah dont use dry ice.
Use a hair dryer or a heatgun and freeze in a can. Alternatively you can tip a can of compressed air upside down and it will shoot liquid freeze.
