"Warning" Don't Bench Bleed Me

if all else fails
pumping fluid in from the wheel end can occasionally work.

you need a hose tail/barb with the same thread to replace the bleed nipple
and if your pump is powered rather than hand activated a friend to watch the level in the master cylinder whilst occasionally slowly pumping the peddle.

a last resort for the frustrated man who wants to go inside because its now dark and rain is hammering on the roof...... but....i'll just give it one more try

PS if you have drum brakes bleed the brakes with the shoes adjusted up tight against the drum and the hand brake off. if you get a hard paddle that slowly sinks well has to be master cylinder or a leak, can't be anything else.

if you get sinking peddle after you then adjust the brakes properly again look for a problem (wet) wheel cylinder

don't top off the master until all is good
