The odds that he might be killed is pretty high, however he will eventually be killed if he does nothing.
That he is going to eat them
Odysseus is curious as to what type of men the cyclops are, and perhaps wishes to receive gifts from the cyclops. He does not realize the danger of the cyclops until it is too late.
Polyphemus, the cyclops, had trapped Odysseus and his men in his cave, and was going to eat them. He had already killed and consumed four of Odysseus' men when Odysseus managed to get him drunk and put out his eye with a hot pointed stick.
When Scylla reached her huge tentacle hands over the ship, Odysseus ran over to hack and slash at them before she can snatch any men. He is also brave by not abandoning his men at Circe's island, even though Eurylochus suggested they stay away from her and keep going. Also he blinded the cyclops and escaped on his goats.
He is literally going to hell. Most men are afraid of the underworld and its horrors.

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.
He tried to be excused.
Oh, dude, Nohbody is actually a clever alias used by Odysseus when he blinds the Cyclops Polyphemus in The Odyssey. It's like a classic case of mistaken identity, you know? Polyphemus yells for help, saying "Nohbody is hurting me!" and everyone just thinks he's losing it. Classic Odysseus, always one step ahead with those sneaky pseudonyms.
Well, according to google dictionary, a ninny is a foolish person. In the Cyclopes, the Giant calls Odysseus a ninny because Polyphemus (the Cyclops) is mad about being stabbed in the eye and going blind, so as an insult, he calls Odysseus a ninny. Hope this helps!
He was against it. He wanted to stay home with his wife and new child.
He is going to free Odysseus from Calypso's island.
