Master Cylinder Woes!

I can't believe this crap...

I tried yanking on the brake pedal, that didn't work.

I unbolted the whole thing, put it in the vise, it still won't come out.

I took the M/C apart, what I've got left is the plunger part and the brake lever stuck into it. And it STILL won't come out, no matter what I try.

Any other suggestions?
