97 Ford Probe

Thanks for any HELP. I am having trouble getting the Crankshaft pully bolt loose. 125lbs of air didn't break it loose. Is it reversed threads by chance? I tried a heat gun on the bolt, even tried to hit it a couple of time with a hammer / chisel ( conter clockwise) but no luck. Any ideas?

If an air impact didn't remove it one way...nothin to loose going the other! don't use too much heat, timing belt is rubber!
