Good luck. lol. Can you set the car back down on the ground? If you can, do that and put it in gear. That should work for ya.

What I've done in the past, is jam a breaker bar between two of the lugs without the rims on, so that the handle is pressed against the ground, then torque on the nut with a breaker bar and extension

good idea with the breaker bar,
as a last resort.. jam an old scewdriver in the rotor and try. done it in the junkyard afew times. also a length of cheater pipe on the breaker bar helps

stick a screw driver in the middle of the caliper right to the disk and use a long poll attach to the wrench or just take a hammer and keep on pounding the wrench and hopefully u break it loose

12 FOOT bar? Interesting. Take pics next time you do that.

The bar I use as a "cheater" on the breaker bar is a good 6 or 7 feet long and its hard to use that in my garage. I couldn't imagine using one twice as long. My cheater was made cakework of cracking the Preludes axle nut and also for the crankshaft bolt on the REX.

not cut the wheel off, a cut off wheel. John is telling you to just cut the axel nut off. As for the rotor screw drill it out if its stripped.

What shooting it with a shotty? yeah it works if you don't mind peppering your legs with buckshot!
There is an article on here about an 80 yr old man who could'nt remove the AXLE nutt. So he shot it with a 12 Guage...Not a smart move.
