The Tokyo Shock Boys (電撃ネットワーク; Dengeki Network) is a Japanese group of four men who perform dangerous and crude stunts.

The group was formed in Tokyo in 1990. The Tokyo Shock Boys have a huge cult following in Japan and have appeared in many other locales, such as Australia, Canada, and Scotland in the United Kingdom.

In 2006 they made appearances in Japanorama, Adam & Joe go Tokyo and the Dirty Sanchez movie. However, their shows are viewed as having more 'magic' stunts rather than painful ones. This was proven in as the Tokyo Shock Boys refused to do a show with Dirty Sanchez due to the fact they viewed their stunts to be too extreme.

The members of the group are:
*Gyuzo (ギュウゾウ "Gyūzō")
*Danna Koyanagi (ダンナ小柳 "Danna Koyanagi") a.k.a. "Buns of Steel"
*Sangojugo (三五十五 "Sangojūgo")
*Nanbu Torata (南部虎弾 "Nanbu Torata")

On volume 2 of the manga Yu-Gi-Oh!, when asked to slide one's foot inside a shoe with a scorpion, Yugi, Jonouchi, and Honda respond, "Who do you think we are, the Tokyo Shock Boys?"

They have since become a huge success.
