(CNN) -- Two men, shocked at what they saw, describe an unarmed teenager with his hands up in the air as he's gunned down by a police officer.

They were contractors doing construction work in Ferguson, Missouri, on the day Michael Brown was killed.

And the men, who asked not to be identified after CNN contacted them, said they were about 50 feet away from Officer Darren Wilson when he opened fire.

An exclusive cell phone video captures their reactions during the moments just after the shooting.

"He had his f**n hands up," one of the men says in the video.

The man told CNN he heard one gunshot, then another shot about 30 seconds later.

"The cop didn't say get on the ground. He just kept shooting," the man said.

That same witness described the gruesome scene, saying he saw Brown's "brains come out of his head," again stating, "his hands were up."

The video shows the man raising his arms in the air -- just as, he says, Brown was doing when he was shot.

The other contractor told CNN he saw Brown running away from a police car.

Brown "put his hands up," the construction worker said, and "the officer was chasing him."

The contractor says he saw Wilson fire a shot at Brown while his back was turned.

The men said they didn't seen how the confrontation started.

he was running a defensive tackle not surrendering..i doubt construction workers wouldn't be able to see that.

Wonder what the reactions will be if he was running away with his hands up? That's about 6 different people who collaborate the same theory. And where is Darren Wilson? Why hasn't there been a statement from him?

I doubt Wilson will be allowed to make a statement on an ongoing investigation.

He should be able to. If I were in his position, I'd want my side to be heard.

Why should he be allowed to? He could say something that would jeopardize the investigation or incriminate himself. That wouldn't be to smart.

Him and his partner are the only people close enough to know what really happened. I guess I'm thinking if there is any integrity left, the right thing would be done.

The right thing is for Wilson not to speak until the investigation is over. That's standard procedure.
