Seems like most all V8 engines have at least one spark plug that is a pain to access. The 2015 suburban right rear/passenger side up by the firewall - number 8 i think - is no exception. With a little extra work, this can be quite a bit easier to deal with - in fact it will make doing the whole right side a lot easier.

“I have no idea what bro be talking about” 😂
Yes i hate it when i call parts the wrong name.
That 'star bit' is a T15 Torx.
Rather than worry about trying to save that wire, I just rip it off and replace it. Some of the parts stores sell individual wires and if yours doesn't just by a whole set and use them as needed or sell them one at a time to your buddies when they do this job since there's a good chance they will break either the #8 or #7 wire. These wires rarely fail from anything other than getting torn or broken when removed.
Make sure to use dielectric grease when you put the wires back on. It will help the wires come off easier next time by keeping the boots from sticking to the plugs.
I personally use a 36 inch long extension with a swivel socket on a long handle ratchet (18inch) to get the plugs loose since it gets me past the fender and I don't have to deal with busted knuckles.
That long extension also lets me get a better operating angle on the swivel by straightening out the bend some. The angle you were working at could be why that plug felt tighter than the rest.
I use the long extension and go behind all of those A/C lines and have the extension right up against the firewall, giving me the best possible angle on the swivel.
good tips - but in this case my brother hadn't bought the replacement wires so we had to make do... torx is just the brand/trade name for a star bit.
