Depends.
Got photos of the frame and BB? What frame material? Also, what tools were used?
For stucked BBs I usually secure the BB tool with a Pedros tool, spanner of your your choice and a cheater bar.
Then hot water on the BB shell, leave it for 5 minutes and push down hard, hold it and increase torque.
Do not be tempted to yank at it, the key is to keep the pressure on and increasing it.
Might be obvious but what threading is the frame?
My favourite combo is a Park Tool BB tool, Park tool cheater bar, the aforementioned Pedros tool, a Brompton seatpost for extra leverage and hot water, have not been defeated yet.
If you're in London, drop me a PM and I'll be happy to give it a go.

Have done that before with double or triple layers, when I say rim tape, hockey tape works just as well.
This is usually at bike polo pick-ups or tournaments and a bodge is required (not for me) for the many ill equipped players.
Have used as a tyre boot - fiver both new and old, crisp packet, back of a puncture patch wrapped in crisp packet, sidewall of a worn tyre.
Top tip, as silly as it sounds, sewing the hole/ripped bit works pretty darn well, if it is on the threaded section and you're running slicks a slight slit to enable the thread to sit below works wonder before you boot it up from the inside.
