Iv told you how to do it ....Rap a bar of some sort in a rag,place it thru the rear wheel, slap it in first gear.
Then place a scaffold bar or something over yor ratchet and hey presto :P

The jumping on the rear brake idea can end in tears

I hear you,

I already have a 2 foot breaker bar, but i think the nut may have been overtighened during PDI.

I don't have anything suitable to go through the wheel (and I am worried about marking the wheel or swinging arm)

I will try with my mate, if that does not work I will go to a friendly tyre center and get them to spin it off with a air wrench (or what every they are called)
