Masked yobs allegedly pushed the PCSO up against a newsagents opposite Ark Academy in Wembley yesterday, before grabbing his protective vest and leering in his face.
A youth recording the footage taunts the victim asking: "how you feeling bro" and says he is "getting handled" as the two teens wrestle with him.
The youngsters are said to have struggled with the clearly distressed man before horrifically dragging him over an advertising board and allegedly slamming him into the pavement.
"Fed man's getting smoked! You've got smoked," the cameraman can be heard saying in between laughs.
One of the teens then appears to punch the PCSO as he lies helplessly on the floor, trapped between the metal frame of the board.
The pair are said to have quickly fled down Bridge Road before they were later arrested on suspicion of actual bodily harm.

The shaken-up officer is then helped to his feet by two women while the teens continue to mock him as they jeer at him and sneer "pick up your hat".
The horrifying video was shared on social media after appearing to have been circulated via Snapchat.
Users branded the clip "absolutely disgusting" and expressed their concern for the PCSO.
A Met Police spokesman said: "Two boys and, both 14, have been charged with assault on an emergency worker following an incident in Brent.
"At approximately 15:50hrs on Monday, 18 October a male PCSO who was on duty in Bridge Road, Wembley was assaulted.
"He was not seriously injured and is being provided with welfare support by the Met.
"Two teenage boys were subsequently arrested and later charged as above.
"They were bailed to appear at Willesden Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, 3 November."
It is not clear if the two schoolboys attend the esteemed Ark Academy.
The secondary school, which teaches 1,607 pupils, boasts it "quickly established high expectations and secured impressive progress" after opening.
