Odysseus is a tragic hero because of the many flaws in his character. After fighting in a war for ten years, he puts him and his men in danger by enter the island of Cyclopes. To save his crew from the Cyclops, Odysseus blinds the one-eyed giant, not knowing that he was the son of Poseidon. Before leaving his cocky personality gets the best of him and he shouts out "Cyclops if ever mortal man inquire how you were put to shame and blinded tell him Odysseus, raider of cities, took your eye: Laertes' son, whose home's on Ithaca!" Poseidon then puts a curse on him to vengeance his son.

Cyclops proves he has no fear of Odysseus by taunting him and boasting about his strength and power, even after Odysseus blinds him and narrowly escapes. Despite the danger Odysseus presents, Cyclops remains defiant and unafraid, showing his arrogance and lack of respect for the hero.
Odysseus's display of bravery and intelligence can be seen when he devises the plan to defeat the cyclops Polyphemus in Book 9 of the Odyssey. By introducing himself as "Nobody" and then blinding the cyclops before escaping, Odysseus showcases both his cleverness and courage in the face of danger.
I'd say the obvious thing is that Polyphemus trapped Odysseus and his men in his cave and threatened to eat them. Other than that Odysseus' cleverness protects them fromanything else Polyphemus tries to do. He was rash when he shouted out his real name to the cyclops though as Polyphemus' father is Poseidon and he calls upon him to avenge his blindness.
The tree that Odysseus used to blind Polyphemus was significant because it was vital in helping Odysseus and his men avoid being eaten by the Cyclops. By using the sharpened tree trunk as a weapon, Odysseus was able to blind Polyphemus and escape his cave. This event also demonstrated Odysseus' resourcefulness and cunning in the face of danger.
An excerpt from Part 2 of The Odyssey that establishes Odysseus' weakness is when he reveals his identity to the Cyclops, Polyphemus. This decision leads to a series of events that ultimately put Odysseus and his men in danger, showcasing his flaw of hubris or excessive pride.
