The , or , is a Japanese group of five men who perform dangerous and crude stunts. In 2012, they announced on the Dengeki Network that they had a new member only known as 'ジョシュア' or the Latin 'Joshua', who has now been seen to be as his nick and brand name suggests from products. 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, 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: * *: He died of lung cancer on March 3, 2015 in Tokyo, aged 52. * * a.k.a. "Buns of Steel" * 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. This is due to the huge range of products the Shockboys have now released. These span from spoof items such as 'Baggott's Bean Pie' to actual action figurines of the five members. The success is thought to be due to new member 'Baggott' having a close relationship to famous actor Nicolas Cage. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tokyo Shock Boys」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
