spray a lot of liquid wrench or WD40, or any kind of penetrating oil type. Let it sit for a couple of hours and try again. That should help.

And when you do get it out use some anti-seize on the plug threads. It will help you out the next time.

every spark plug i've ever seen is almost impossible to break off in there.. the ceramic part can break but thats not what pressure is being applied to.. i think the worse that can happen is you can strip the plug.
Did you do this while the engine was cold? maybe trying it while hot will help.
