Cannot open front trunk if my life depended on it(dead battery)

05 987 and battery went flat now I cannot open the trunk. Key is now stuck in the ignition. What a STUPID DESIGN??!!

I cant turn the wheel to get better access at the cable pull in front left wheel well. So I have managed to make do with wheel in place. Cant take wheel off because it has a wheel lock which of course is stuck in the front trunk with spare tire.

I am pulling on this cable with all my might. With pliers without pliers and it pulls some but does NOT open the hood. What gives?
I sure do miss the manual trunk cables of the early 986 generation
