I don t have a folder named "bookmarkbackups" or places.sqlite in my Profile folder and many folders are empty becaus unreadable-corrupted SSD maybe but for Chrome is all ok because I had it installed and everything is the same as in the video!

Your old 11xoklhe.default should be a folder, not a file. You may find an old bookmarkbackups or places.sqlite in it.
For the recent data, if your disk is corrupted and the files unreadable, it looks like this is a loss you'll have to do with. Depending on what happened to your disk, you may be able to get back some data with recovery software (for example EasyRecovery has a demo version that will let you know IF you can use it to recover your file - but will not do the recovery).

True, I wrote wrong and I have old bookmarkbackups but with only couple of bookmarks in it 2.90 MB?!
For the recent data - I managed to save my data from SSD and I saved the data from Chrome like in the video above but they are not important to me.

I think you may be misunderstanding what you're seeing. Each file in your bookmarkbackups folder is a backup of your entire collection of bookmarks at a given date (notice that each file has a timestamp for when it was made). Also, bookmarks are very small--they really just consist of a tiny bit of text. So, for example, my entire bookmark library still fits in a backup file that's only about 235 KB!
All this means there may be hope yet. Try restoring some of those backups in Firefox and see what they actually contain. Perhaps you got lucky.
(If you already knew this please forgive me for giving needless advice. I just wouldn't want you to miss a chance of recovering things. I'd hate to loose my bookmarks. I actually have my computer set up to make an online copy of bookmarkbackups to ensure that even if my hard drive gets struck by lightning I don't loose many of them.)

Maybe you're right, and it did not occur to me so tnx for advice buddy! I'll do what I can when I'm on my PC.

Put your SDD in the microwave for 2 minutes. Put butter on it first to avoid fragmenting sectors.
Discaimer: If anyone reading this is dumb enough to take this suggestion seriously, don't. Dragons are liars.

I've heard just licking both sides of the SSD does the same thing.

I once heard that rubbing the hd with magnets work too. Especially when the magnets are really strong (industrial ones are the best) and you do it only one slow motion in one way. Don't zigzag or the data may become confused. I'll put a pic too so those who don't already own strong magnet can see that there is even a degausser for the purpose and yes, you can buy one! :)
Honestly no one should do this... unless they want to have a broken hd :)

The HTML export file should just be called "bookmarks". If you have that then go to your Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import and Backup > Import Bookmarks From HTML.
"11xoklhe.default" should be a folder for your profile. If you can't open it then it's corrupted and there's probably nothing you can do about it.

Unfortunately not for me, I may have screwed up something

In Profiles 15.2MB I have this rs970nwv.default-1442913756150 folder and in it some others mostly empty folders with some stuff but no trace of bookmarks, bookmarkbackups, json file.

sounds like it's beyond the point of looking for files but you could analyze the raw data for urls and text/html and instead you might be able to get at least some of them. http://forensicswiki.org/wiki/Dstrings

I'll do what I can when I'm on my PC. But I do not understand why I managed to save (I'm pretty sure I did, watching the above video), Chrome bookmarks (but not important to me) and FF not.

Ctrl+Shift+B, import from HTML and search for the 11xoklhe.default file

Yes, I have an account but I never sync data...stupid of me! I saved the data from Chrome like in the video above and I'm pretty sure I did, watching the above video but they are not important to me.

I'm not a fan of Chrome, only the occasional use for YT and sites that do not work with FF or better work with Chrome but it seems that Chrome is on this inquiry better than FF.

I managed to save my data from SSD, what interests me and more important to me is FF bookmarks. I did not synchronized them and now I do not know how to get them, from the corrupted disc I copied Mozilla Firefox and Profiles folders total 15,2 MB (only?). I found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVXgfNVVakE - disk in the video is fine and it is about Chrome not FF and its different. Also before 1.5 year I exported bookmarks to the desktop in the HTML, file name is 11xoklhe.default and has 856 MB, but I can not convert or do not know how to. Since then I accumulated more FF staff... if at least I could save this file would be great.
Please help / advice!
