Odysseus wants to visit the Cyclops out of pure curiosity. He knows that he has the protection of the gods and he believes himself to be more than human so he does not fear entering Polyphemus' cave with twelve of his men in tow. ... Odysseus lost six men because of his ego and barely made his escape.
