Emilio was actually his body double in Apocalypse Now. A lot of the scenes in the film were actually him, and not Charlie.

Martin nearly died during the filming of Apocalypse Now.

See the brilliant documentary of the making - Hearts of Darkness

I don't think that's true. He had a brief appearance as an extra but that was cut from the final film. I'm not aware of him acting as a body double for his father.
