Angie Scarth-Johnson, whose full name is Angelina Scarth-Johnson, is an Australian rock climber, born on 20 May 2004 in Canberra, with Spanish heritage on her mother's side. She began climbing at seven years old, after falling out of a tree led her father to take her to the local climbing gym. At nine she became the youngest person to climb grade 5.13d (8b), on the route Swingline in the Red River Gorge in the United States, and at ten she became the youngest person to climb grade 5.14b (8c) when she topped Welcome to Tijuana in Rodellar, Spain.

A film about her progress, Momentum, was released in 2023, and she has appeared in Reel Rock and in Red Bull and North Face productions. The account here rests on her English Wikipedia article alone.
