Default fuel filter dilema

what the hell. is there something that i just don't know about when it comes to the banjo bolt on the fuel filter. i cannot get it off for anything. is there any special tool i could use besides a cresent wrench or a 17 mm open ended wrench? i cannot break this bolt lose for the life of me...some guidance please.

p.s. im no noob.

expletive!!! is there a way that it could be ceased on there? i don't see how a human could possibly put something on this tightly. does anybody have any tricks to try? i already broke one of the bolts that mounts the filter to the firewall!

heat it up with a torch..........not! take it off the wall and put it in a huge set of vice grips.
