Stop before you fold the wheel in half; if it becomes that bad get pullers...

I folded one - airbag didn't go on after

I wouldn't do that, the column has a bit where it is meant to collapse, might damage that

This is the second wheel off post recently, try some penetrating oil down the splines and try rocking and pulling at the same time , do not hammer the nut /spline or you will cause damage as said further down the shaft.
