I CANNOT TURN CAPSLOCK OFF. Lol jk.
Patience. Keep trying, what yoyo is it?
some yoyo axles have hex key holes. check if your axle has a hex hole and use a hex key to get it out.
What yoyo is it? if it is a normal set screw set up then try vise grips. If vise grips wont do it you will be screwed because it means you will have twisted the axle, and snapped it off, or you are just not strong enough.

With most axles, the yoyo would strip before the axle snaps.

Calm down. Take a few deep breaths. Find the capslock key and disable it.

If you’re gonna use locktite, use the blue and very sparingly. Never red.
Glad the results are good. That’s what’s important.

This is a bit after the fact, since he’s got it out, but…
If it’s so stuck that a pliers etc doesn’t work, a hex key definitely will not work. Please read posts to get the complete details before you recommend a solution.
