Sophus August Falck (15 November 1864 in Copenhagen - 29 July 1926 in Copenhagen) was a Danish pioneer in the area of fire fighting and rescue services.

In 1906 he founded the company Falck Rescue Corps (Danish: Falcks Redningskorps). This later evolved into one of the world's biggest security and emergency services corporations.
