Put the screwdriver in as far as it'll go.

Get 1 hammer.

BANG it a few times.

Push ALL your bodyweight behined and try to turn.

Try banging with a hammer. Its the shock through the screw trying to break it free slightly to turn. Also the screwdriver may be its own screw points into the screw head again.


Otherwise, its a case of drilling the bugger out im afraid

One is exposed and I'm considering chiseling the head off
