Abstract
Photon beams at photon colliders are very narrow, powerful and can not be deflected. For the beam dump at the TESLA-like collider we suggest to use a long gas (Ar) spoiler in front of the water absorber, this solves the overheating and mechanical stress problems. The neutron background at the interaction point is estimated.
