Extreme care must be taken and I wouldn't advise unless you have PLENTY of space are 100% CONFIDENT you can do it. It may also break something in the drive traing.
The trick is to start engine neutral and run until it's up to working temperature.
Making sure you have lots of space in front of car, turn off engine. Engage 2nd(?) gear and then attempt to start engine with your foot on the clutch pedal. Because the engine is warm and just run it should start instantly and lurch forward and free off the seized clutch with a bang. Be prepare to turn off engine incase it sets off going forward.

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.
