Snapped a Bolt
Good luck!
Just drill it. It will pretty much for sure just spin out. How are you gonna make it worse by drilling it?
Use a cobalt coated bit. I'm sure the friction from drilling will just thread it out easily.

Ways to make it worse:
Break drill bit part way in
Break hardened bolt extractor in hole
My concern is the misaligned hole resulted in cross threading, and the fact that bolt broke means its hopelessly cross threaded now. Even if get bolt out gotta deal with mangled threads.

Or are your fists actually made of ham?
He's gotta try something and be conscientious of what he' doing....or accept leaving the bolt in there and go on living his life.
Bring it somewhere if you don't trust yourself with a drill, OP.
