They sang so hypnotically, that sailers stoped to listen, and they crashed into land, and the crash killed everyone on board. Odysseus got suspicious of the music, so he stuffed his mens ears so they couldn't hear the music. he tied himself to the ships mast so he could be safe, but also hear the music.
