Big Van Vader o Vader, pseudonimo di Leon Allen White (Lynwood, 14 maggio 1955 – Denver, 18 giugno 2018), è stato un wrestler statunitense. È stato attivo tra Stati Uniti e Giappone prevalentemente durante gli anni novanta, quando combatteva nelle federazioni New Japan Pro-Wrestling, World Championship Wrestling, World Wrestling Federation e All Japan Pro Wrestling. Specializzato principalmente nel ruolo di monster heel, in alcune fasi della carriera ha anche combattuto come face. Era un peso massimo dalla mole imponente ma dotato di inaspettate qualità atletiche, che gli consentivano di eseguire frequentemente sia manovre aeree come il Vadersault (una sua variante del moonsault) che prese di potenza.
