We have a metal fence in front of the house and it has very strong iron rods both vertically and horizontally.
The issue is with the horizontal iron rod as its bend and also its vending on the other side is broken, so its sticking out on one side.
I tried to bend it with hand but its too strong and doesn't move. When I hit it with hammer I am not able to hit it from behind due to the mesh behind, ( the bend side is on the back), so if I hit it from the front the whole rod vibrates and its not helpful. See the below pics for clear details.
Any suggestions would be great, thanks

The easiest way to straighten he metal pipe is to heat it with a Mapp gas torch. Apply the flame to the crimped pipe end until it begins to glow orange.
Slowly and steadily push the free end back into position. You may have to push the pipe past it's final position so as to compensate for it springing back slighly.
