Just buy a set of reverse sockets that suck down on the bolt head as you try to loosen it problem solved

In your example, a vise-grip would have worked.

You can also use armandhammer with super glue. When it drys that bolt will come right off.

My question is why are you removing that bolt, are you installing another CO2 sensor or something, last I checked there was a reason that bolt is there.

Judging by how that socket got stuck you probably could have tapped it on with a hammer. As a mechanic I can tell you that 95% of the time you're not getting a C clamp on it or be able to use a jack. Drop the 20 or 30 bucks on strip sockets and save yourself a headache.
