try using a chisel and hammer

hitting on the angle that undo it, anti-clockwise but hit it more to the side so if u over chip, its only one part of the side that is chip but u can use the other side

works for me

probably wont

use vice grips or a plumbers monkey wrench

or get your self a hex socket and bang it on with the hammer.

its a 14mm head right ???

other option is chesal the nut head off and remove the stud with a stud remover or, get a metrich spanner or socket set, they special spanner design for roundered bolts.
