Hey Patrick,
I would try to get a putty knife or other such item down in between the rim/bead and the tire enough to be able to separate the tire bead from the rim just enough to get some wire cutters and cut the bead bands, then the tire should more easily be able to be grabbed with vicelock pliers or such to be able to peel the tire from the rim!?
Like stated, if a heat gun, and or the other chemical approaches don't work, you might even try a small torch on a thin area next to the rim, again burning enough to get down to the bead chord/wires and the rim!
Good Luck, keep us posted on your progress and what worked!
