The only diy attempt is have someone push from inside while someone else tries to open hatch from outside - hatch will have to be forced open.
Otherwise recommend professional assistance.
Good luck!
At the shop - we can normally get the hatch open in this manner - person inside sitting in cargo area with back against the rear seat back and pushing with feet at bottom of hatch while person out side helps open hatch.
