These work awesome!!

Sometimes you can just use a 5-6' prying bar that the end is wedge-shaped. Slide it along the floor to hit the mortar between the tile and the sub-floor. They will often pop up in one or a few pieces each. If this works it is easier to clean up than the other methods.

All else fails, use a 40 lb jack hammer.
