Bobby Leach (lahir di Cornwall, England pada 1858 – wafat pada 26 April 1926) adalah orang kedua yang terjun ke Air Terjun Niagara memakai sebuah kaleng besi, setelah Annie Taylor, pada 25 Juli 1911. Ia menjalani enam bulan di rumah sakit untuk memulihkan cedera yang ia dapatkan saat terjun.[1]

Pada 1926, saat berkunjung ke Selandia Baru, Leach mengalami cedera kaki saat ia terpeleset sebuah kulit jeruk. Kakinya menjadi infeksi, dan kemudian muncul gangren yang membuat kakinya harus diamputasi. Meskipun demikian, Bobby Leach meninggal akibat komplikasi pada dua bulan kemudian.[2]
