Do absolutely anything you can to loosen it up first. Hot bath (pharmacist recommended salt water, not sure why) for over half an hour. Mine was kind of wiggling about with the pressure from the water, so I kept jiggling my foot to loosen it further, then folded it all the way back (180deg from normal) and rocked it left/right to break off the middle. Pulling straight off seemed not to work particularly well for me.
Good luck!
(Edit: if it helps, this was about five weeks after the initial trauma, and then I caught it on something which lifted it 90deg)

Just had to pull off a dead big toenail, fuck me that’s not something I ever want to experience again
