Angry Hood stuck

So I just found out today my hood got stuck. The cable is fine. But when I pulled the latch, the passenger side latch got unhooked but the driver side got stuck so I won't be able to open the hood. Any thoughts on how could this happening? Is there a way to manually open the hood from the grill/front opening? Any tips and tricks?

Things I've tried:

Lift the hood by myself - failed
Asked a big guy lift the hood - failed
Pressed on the hood while pulling the latch at the same time - failed
Banging my head against the wall - ... failed


Note: I recently had Nissan dealership replaced the radiator assembly. After that, the hood got stuck. I think they f'ed up the latch assembly.
