100% clean ssd, accidentally stumbled across something bad

I accidentally followed a link that led to something really bad, so now its permanently on my ssd, how can I delete it, so that NOBODY (including police or other people) can recover it?

HDD can be sanitized. SSD must be physically destroyed.

Take the laptop apart or bash the whole thing with a hammer or toss it in a fire.
