Star Trek 2 Set Photo Is Volcanic

This new set image from the now filming Star Trek sequel features actor Zachary Quinto who plays Spock, dangling in a Volcano Suit.  The image came with this blurb via MTV News. "After first rehearsing the scene with a Spock Stunt Double Actor Zachary Quinto was then rigged to a wire in front of a large green screen and lifted to a height of 10 stories high then dropped at a high rate of speed as if he was falling. In the scene Spock is wearing a “Volcano Suit” and carrying an unknown piece of equipment with the Starfleet Emblem. A Volcano is somehow involved in this scene. The crew had a real fire burning off camera to catch the fire reflections on Spock’s “Volcano Suit”.  Star Trek 2 is due in theaters in May 2013.
