cant remove last bolt...

im removing my tranny for the second time, and for some reason this last bolt (passenger side top) wont budge, every other bolt came out without much hesitation, but this last one is a mean gremlin. ive tried the tranny at different angles, putting old bolts back to even the weight, i pb blasted it for a few minutes, no luck. i pb blasted agian, im gonna let it sit overnight, and with your suggestions, try again tomorrow. so what else could i try?

thanks for the help but it did not work, i just could not wrestle a wrench from the top. but i did manage to get the bolt off.. the good ol' socket, swivel joint and 18" of extension, AND a wrench used as a breaker bar, and from the side of the vehicle, i used both hands and just pulled hella hard till all the tools popped off and clanged on the ground, but the bolt was then finger loose! ahha musta been the pb b'laster.
