Odysseus injures the Cyclops by stabbing him in the eye with a sharpened olive stake, blinding him.
The best part that i think is, is when Odysseus and his crew escapes from the cave!
Odysseus and his men pretend to be part of the flock of sheep, tying themselves to the undersides of the sheep.
Odysseus tricked the cyclops by befriending him they got him drunk... when polyphemus (the cyclops) fell asleep the were able to stab him in the eyem making it a bit easier to escape seeing as they were never not prisoners. The nobody part was ... he told the cyclops (whom isn't very bright) that his name was nobody so when polyphemus got stabbed he screams " nobody stabbed my eye!" this is how odysseus tricked polyphemus the cyclops
Odysseus did not kill the cyclops. Polyphemus, Poseidon's one eyed son, was blinded by Odysseus and his men in "The Odyssey" by Homer, Part 1.

the most important thing in the The Cyclops is that Odyseus gets cursed by him and that's why it took him soo long to return to Ithica a
Odysseus got out of the Cyclops gave in three easy steps: 1. he got the cyclops drunk which caused him to pass out 2. He stabbed the Cyclops in the eye so he was blinded 3. Him along with the members or his crew hid underneath sheep and escaped with out the cyclops knowledge Note: the Cyclops was an avid Shepard and was going to let his sheep out no matter what because it was part of his daily routine which he always followed.

Some versions say Odysseus didn't tell the cyclops his name, here is one version.Odysseus told the cyclops his name was Nobody. He told this to the cyclops named Polyphemus as part of his plan to kill the cyclops who was holding him in the cave, his men. Then, on the morning when Odysseus attacked Polyphemus in his single eye, the cyclops gave a great painful bellow which woke up the neighboring cyclops. They raced to the cave and yelled to Polyphemus "Why did you wake us up so early? How is hurting you?", to which Polyphemus answered "It's Nobody! Nobody is hurting me!"The other cyclops answered "Well, if nobody is you, then why did you wake us up at this ungodly hour? You should pray to Poseidon, go to sleep, and let the rest of us sleep."Odysseus was able to kill the cyclops Polyphemus without interference from the other cyclops living nearby due to his trickery of telling the cyclops his name was Nobody. Most versions say however, that Odysseus told Polyphemus his name was nobody, so that when Polyphemus cried out for help, while Odysseus was shoving a stake into his eye, his fellow cyclopes would think that no one was attacking him. But then once Odysseus had escaped Polyphemus and got onto his boat, he cried out 'My name is Odysseus. The great Odysseus has blinded you.' Odysseus probably said this because he was a bit cocky from his victory and he just wanted the cyclops to know who had defeated him. Polyphemus then asked his father Poseidon to curse Odysseus, which Poseidon did do, not allowing Odysseus to reach Ithaca for 10 years.
Odysseus constructs a large spear, and after lulling Polyphemus with wine, lunges it into his eye.
