Biography

Alfred Johansson was a veteran Swedish diver who first competed in the 1906 Intercalated Games, finishing 15th in platform diving. Six years later, at the age of 36, he returned to the Olympics to compete in plain high diving at the 1912 Games, but he did not advance to the final.

Like his father, Johansson worked as a warehouse bookkeeper. With his wife Anna Selina (née Ström), he had three children.
