umm, no, they are just bloody tight...

some people seem to take the approach of wedging a breaker bar against the ground/some part of the car, and cranking the engine to get it undone...

well.... goodluck! lol

you're going to atleast need the engine mounted to something that wont move I'd say... and maybe a 6 foot long breaker bar...

Try a rattle gun.

The vibration and torque should free it up.

Wedge something in the ring gear to stop the motor turning over.
