If they have been done up too tight, ie breaker bar or impact gun they develop hairline cracks and then shear off dur to the rotational forces applied

If they snapped off due to being over stressed or over tightened you should be able to drill them out and remove them with stud extracters.  If you can't they have been threadlocked or rusted in place, a downside fo wading I'm afraid.
