Filament stuck inside Nextruder nozzle help

Last night, I was doing printing and noticed it was printing air. I checked if the spool was jammed, it's not jammed. So, I unloaded the filament and re-insert it. It did not allow me to autoload the filament. 

I went ahead and remove the nozzle and insert the needle in and it stopped short. Then I inserted the filament through top tube and measure how far inside it stopped.

It seems like the piece of filament is stuck between red lines. 

How can I get it out? Am I out of luck?

With some kind of wrench, hold it in a gas flame. For instance the gas stove in the kitchen.

It will liquify and run out of the tip. You can use a 1.5 hex key to push it out if needed.

Thank you, guys.

Managed to get it out with your advices. I never had a long nozzle before and I wasn't sure how to remove it. 😬
