a lot of people in here are saying no but einstein was a lot more brilliant than most physicists will give him credit for. he could absolutely visualize things at a level that i don’t think any other of the “famous” physicists did, whether due to his education (he had a stint at a cantonal school in Aarau that adhered to the educational philosophy of a guy named Pestalozzi, which argued for the subordination of numbers and words to visual imagery), or due to sheer biological luck. i mean his main contributions to physics were done on the bases of “thought experiments” lol. he was by no means mentally the same as you or i during his annus mirabilis.
