I have found that a large paper clip is the right combination of strength, length and mass to hold the heat and burn through the nail quickly. A 90 deg bend with about 1/16"-1/8" stick out keeps the tip from over-penetrating. I've had to do this more times than I care to remember.
My helpful tip for the day. :)
