What misfortune did Odysseus bring on himself and his men?
Odysseus entered the city of Troy by using a Trojan Horse, a giant replica of a horse, and destroyed Troy from the inside. He wouldn't have been able to if Poseidon didn't send a sea serpent to kill the snitch, who was about to give away Odysseus' position. After Odysseus defeated the city of Troy, he gloated about how he solemnly defeated the town with no help of the Gods. This made Poseidon furious, so he cursed Odysseus and his men so they would go through Hell if they ever sailed again. Eventually all of his men (excluding Odysseus) were either killed by the Cyclops, turned into pigs by the witch, or fell into the endless pit created by Poseidon.

How many of Odysseus's men died in the Odyssey?
Eventually Odysseus is the only man left from the crew he left Troy with. So they all die!How many?Well he lost 6? men for every ship during the skirmish with the Circones, right after leaving Troy. The cyclops eats 4?, King Antiphates eats 1 for dinner and the Giants then capture most the men by capturing the ships that went to harbor. Odysseus' ship is the only one left now, because he didn't sail into the nice harbor, but left his ship near some cliffs.Then there's the guy that fell off the roof at Circe's place right before they go to the Kingdom of the Dead. The Scylla takes one for each head (6?) when they sail past that monster. The rest die when Zeus wrecks the ship after leaving the island with Helios' cattle.
