What part of the plug is on the spark plug? did you get all the rubber off? If so just get a long *** deep socket and take it out.

Get yourself a long *** set of needlenoses or some really strong *** adhesive. Put the adhesive on the end you do have and shove it back in then let it set overnight. Thats about your chances...for god sake don't take the head off for that...there are always options. This is typical cheap wires...can't stand them.

yep long needle nose pliers will work or use a long flathead screwdriver to pry it lose or break it up. The worst that would happen is you'll snap the top of the plug off, but you'll still be able to get a wrench on it.
