i loved the photo...

British comic Ali G has made a career out of mercilessly razzing anyone and everyone.

But here's the proof that the "can't you take a joke?" funnyman - whose real name is Sacha Baron Cohen - is too thin-skinned for his own good.

Ali G tried to throttle Daily News photographer Richard Corkery when the veteran lensman tried to snap a photo of him and his fiancée, Isla Fisher, at the premiere party for her new film, "Wedding Crashers."

The Australian-bred Fisher smiled as Corkery lined up his shot inside the immaculately planned wedding-themed party at Cipriani 42 near Grand Central Terminal on Wednesday night.

But Ali G, 34, who regularly rips Jews, Christians, rappers and others on his HBO show, was captured on film reaching out to choke Corkery with a one-handed martial arts-style hold.

"All of a sudden, Ali G came racing up and his hand went up on Dick's throat, neck, his windpipe," said stunned New York Times reporter Paula Schwartz. "It was scary to me."
