Wild video shows man with a sharp object still lodged in his back — as he nonchalantly yaks on his phone  — after he was stabbed on a subway platform in East Harlem on Tuesday afternoon.

The 29-year-old is captured in the footage sitting upright in a wheelchair while being pushed to an ambulance — with the green handle of the weapon sticking out of his upper back.

The attack involved two male suspects wearing ski masks and all-black clothing who fled the scene and remain at large, cops said.
