The Tokyo Shock Boys (東京ショックボーイズ, Tōkyō Shokku Bōizu), or Dengeki Network (電撃ネットワーク, Dengeki Nettowāku), 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 countries, such as Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Germany and Scotland.

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 Dirty Sanchez: The Movie as the Tokyo Shock Boys refused to do a show with Dirty Sanchez because they viewed their stunts to be too extreme.

The members of the group are:

• Torata Nanbu [ja; Nanbu Torata]; until he died of cerebral apoplexy on January 20, 2024.^[1]
• Sangojyugo (三五十五, Sangojyugo)
• Gyuzo [ja]
• Danna Koyanagi [ja]
